Question:
I have a 2017 Coleman 285BH. Looking to replace the AC with an energy efficient unit. Will the Furrion Chill HE 13,500 BTU provide the cooling needed?
asked by: Brian R
Expert Reply:
Hey Brian, the Furrion Chill HE # FR73TD would probably work pretty well for you but if you are wanting an energy efficient the best option is the newer AC unit from Furrion with the Chill Cube part # FR59TD for a non-ducted application.
The Cube is by far the lowest drawing RV AC unit while also being super quiet and super cold blowing. What AC unit do you have currently?
